Michael felt sorrowful upon remembering the vows Christina made on their wedding day. The tall man stood on the street with tears welled up in his eyes.Since when did he lose her?The assistant acted on the orders quickly. On the same day he received Michael’s phone call, he brought several bodyguards with him and flew all over to America to bring Heather home.Michael disappeared after leaving the Young residence. Heather failed to reach him on the phone, so did the assistant once he arrived in America.Travis’ birthday party was still going on. The servants in the house discovered the present left by the door and brought it inside.Inside the box was a massive toy plane model that Travis had always wanted.“Wow, Mommy, is this present from you?”Christina was astonished too as she had no idea who it was from. She suddenly remembered Travis mentioning it in front of Michael before. Could it be from him?Why did he leave silently after dropping off the present instead of comin
“I’m unforgivable to you, right?”Christina remained quiet. She knew what Michael did was not entirely unforgivable but… there were too many obstacles between the two of them. Serena, Suzy, Heather… The relationship did not belong to just the two of them anymore. It was destined to fail.For a short period of time, she almost wanted to forgive him and start things afresh, even if it was for the sake of the child. However, she gave up on the idea in the end.She should not have started in the beginning and gave each other false hope, knowing that it was doomed to fail anyway.“We can’t change fate. I’m not going to leap into the pit of fire knowingly because I’m no longer that fool I used to be.”“Pit of fire? Christina, do you think I betrayed you? But not once have I forgotten about our promises! My love for you has never changed!”“So what?” She asked. “You know things aren’t going to be the same anymore, so what’s the point?”She was not young anymore and could not afford t
Halfway through the vows, the butler called. “Young Master, something terrible happened. Travis has gone missing!”This shocked Christina and Sean greatly. They could not be bothered about the ceremony and rushed outside after mumbling a quick apology to the staff. They were anxious through the ride home. The butler was waiting by the door when they reached the Young residence.“What happened?”“Young Master, I’m sorry! It’s my fault! I walked away to make a cup of tea and Travis was nowhere to be found when I returned.”“Check the security footage right away!” Sean instructed. The footage showed that Travis picked up the phone in the living room when the butler walked away to make tea. It was unsure who was on the other end of the phone. He left the house alone after hanging up. There was a car parked outside the Young residence. Upon seeing Travis approaching, someone leaped out of the car and abducted the little boy before driving away.Who was that? Why did he want to abduct T
At Michael’s order, Logan escorted Heather to the airport personally for fear that she would come up with some strange ideas to extend her stay in America.Michael bought some alcohol and stayed in the hotel room after giving that order.Logan knew he was not feeling good because of Christina’s marriage, thus he did not want to disturb the man.Unexpectedly, Heather did not try to make a fuss this time and agreed to board the plane. However, she brought several doctors along with her, claiming that she might need treatment if she feels unwell during the flight.Logan agreed without thinking much about it.Indeed, another car was waiting by the airport when he dropped Heather off. Two doctors in white coats appeared with a child and they boarded the plane with Heather.He thought that was the doctor’s child, so he did not question more. He could not see the child’s face from a distance either.His mission was to send Madam home, and would not meddle in other affairs. He saw Heath
“Alright, I’ll think of a way to get Travis away from the Larson family. I won’t be kind if Heather dares to be irrational!”Matthew was boiling with fury.He knew Rachel was involved but he could not criticize her in front of Sean. He would not have agreed to engage her if he had known earlier that she was so cruel. He had no idea she was also behind this abduction, or he would be coughing up blood out of rage by now. After the call ended, Sean thought for a few seconds before calling Ariel too. He wanted her to pick Christina up from the airport and look for Travis together if possible.Sean finally went home after sorting out everything. Old Madam Young who was waiting anxiously at home went forward to receive him. “How’s it going? I heard from Rachel that Heather took Travis away. Is this true?”“That’s right! Logan said she boarded the plane with two doctors and a child. I’m certain that the kid is Travis.”“Heather is a troublemaker. How could she be so unreasonable?” Ol
Besides, Christina would undoubtedly go looking for Travis the minute the plane touched down. Heather was an unreasonable madwoman. Matthew figured Christina would be at a disadvantage if he was there to support her.Although Sean told him that Michael was furious about Heather’s behavior and promised Christina to bring Travis home, Matthew did not believe any of it.He knew Michael had never given up hope on Christina. Since Travis was with Heather, perhaps Michael might seize this opportunity to blackmail Christina into getting back with him.Anxiety rocked through him at the thought of Christina’s difficult situation. Immediately, he instructed Fred to check every major hospital in Jade City to see if Heather had checked the boy in any of them. Then, he hopped into the seat behind the wheels and sped along the highway toward the airport. Upon arrival, he locked the car and headed toward the entrance. He looked over his shoulder when someone called out his name from the back. Ar
Matthew’s phone rang before Christina was anywhere within sight. It was an incoming call from his assistant, Fred.A delight filled his heart. “It must be about Travis.”He answered the call. As expected, Fred found out which hospital Travis had been checked into. “President Henderson, he’s at the special nursing ward of the First Hospital. He was checked in today.”Fred asked the doctor about Travis’ condition. The boy’s condition was currently stable and not at risk.“Great, keep a close eye at the ward but don’t raise any attention.”Matthew told Ariel about what he learned after ending the call. She was relieved to hear that. Her biggest concern was Heather hiding Travis somewhere secluded, but the search went effortlessly with Matthew’s assistance.The plane landed and Christina hurried to the exit. Michael was on the same flight as her but she did not even glance at him once throughout the entire journey. She acted as if he was not there at all.She walked past his seat wh
Christina finally heaved a sigh of relief. She had been worrying about Travis’ health on the flight. Although she knew Heather would not cause him any harm, the boy must have been terrified to be forcefully taken away, worsening his condition. She finally released the breath she had been holding after hearing what Michael said.The latter tried to please her now that she was finally acknowledging him. “My man is waiting by the door now. Let’s hurry to the hospital to see Travis.”She glared at him before walking away.He was secretly delighted that the woman did not refuse him. He was worried she would never speak to him again. If so, he really would have no idea what to do.This time around, he dared not coerce her with the contract like last time, knowing that he would lose her forever if he had. She would also never allow Travis to reunite with him.Michael did not know the reason she agreed was that she wanted to see Travis as quickly as possible. Besides, she was worried He
